You were i n w a r with Germans and Japanese.
Agreed, and being in a state of declared war changes the definitions applied to one's actions. Right?
I definitely recall our president declaring war on all nations that support/harbor/encourage terrorists, and that congress voted nearly unanimously in support of that. Right?
I'm assuming you'll say "right" to those...so...follow the logic here...
How is dropping bombs on the cities of those, with whom you are currently engaged in a declared war with, acts of terrorism?
I guess if you say "wrong" to either of those then we do not have enough common ground to further explore this discussion.

While he and I disagree (strongly) I can fully respect Sandy's position on this and admire him for his intellectual honesty.
